My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Coco is a 9 year young angel who was pulled out of the Newark shelter to give her a second chance at love. She was dumped because her family was supposedly moving but I don't know how anyone could give up a gem like her. She hasn't stopped hugging me since I brought her home. She is a bigger gsl at 70 pounds and she does like to jump up and wrap her paws around you but she is very gentle. Coco is housebroken and up to date with her vaccines. She does have some wounds on her elbows from sitting on the cold cement in the city pound but she is well on her way to being healed. A big cushy dog bed helps. Coco does well with the other foster dogs. She even deals well with the freshie brat pooch who thinks he rules the roost. However, she does have a high prey drive and is not a good choice for a home with kitties or very small dogs. While Coco is up there in age, she still has a spring in her step. She enjoys wslks and loves her car rides. She is reserved and quiet and likes nothing more than to curl up next to you for some pets and snuggles.
This pup is a total love. Please don't write off a senior dog. They are so appreciative for being taken into a loving home. I always say, I would take a 10 year old over a 10 week old any day. And Coco is a perfect example of why.
